This question has been playing on my mind for the last few weeks and today I really want to ask Mandana's supporters and detractors alike
Would you be happy if your future generation behaved with each other how Mandana Karimi has been promoting all through this show?
1. She is violent and unapologetic about kicking and pushing people around. Do we really need to encourage more violence?
2. She is abusive and cant go an hour without using abusive language. If this is what we should be encouraging then why do we correct our children when we her them using bad language? Why do we teach that we should respect other people?
3 She constantly plays the woman card and tries to portray that women need special treatment at all times. The world is advancing too fast we should be teaching our daughters how to go and get what you want and not expect things on a platter just because you are a woman.
4. She does not respect age and abused someone for eating food at night in the bedroom. In a country like India where people stay in joint families, imagine a daughter in law or even a daughter creating a ruckus about someone much older eating at a certain time as they need to take their medicines. That would be so positive wont it?
5. She mocks and taunts everyone around her and then says that she is alone. She abuses anyone who tries to befriend her and then plays victim if they call her out on her behaviour. If my child behaved like that i would immediately tell them to shut it as that is very destructive.
6. She has no respect of the people around her and can say f**king Hindi to a Hindi audience. Would like to reiterate that we teach respect and not disrespect. Have been lucky to travel the world and have had lots of difficulty in explaining myself. Trust me I will say Indians are the most tolerant and accommodating people in the world and so I felt really bad that she abused the language that is a mother tongue for most of these people.
7. She took away a plate from a person who was eating. That was just terrible and frankly idiotic of her. If my child behaved like that with someone who came to my house saying this is mine I would quite literally throw a fit. We teach to share not snatch.
8. Encouraging untouchability by saying if Priya touches something then I will not use it. She obviously thinks of herself as superior and considers everyone beneath her. This is not a behaviour I could accept in anyone I know.
9. She took someones things and threw it on the floor breaking it. Now this is something I have seen happening with little children and we always make them apologise and replace the items that they have destroyed. However Mandana was encouraged by BB saying that that is not violence. If a husband takes something from his wife's body and throws it on the floor with clear intention of intimidation it is termed Domestic Violence and abuse. Lets not encourage such behaviour in coming generation
10. Saved the worst for the last - STEALING. She has been taking things without permission and either keeping it with herself or hiding them. Both of these are called stealing as these are not her friends that she is trying to play pranks on. When she does not think of them as friends then why does she touch their things.
These and many more outright negative actions are the reason why I am questioning the TMs of this forum - Why are we supporting such behavior? Does respect, honesty, non-violence and good behavior not count anymore? Would you be ok if your family or friends behaved in that way?
Mandana Karimi winning the BB9 season which is supposed to be reality TV will only put a stamp of approval on her antics and tell the world that this is acceptable in the real world. Do you still want her to win??
P.S I am not being emotional. It is a practical question. Media personalities always influence people around them, especially teenagers and young adults who are still learning their way in the world. Lets not be blind to the influence of media. And this is Reality TV not a game show.
P.P.S Why is everyone mentioning Prince? Did I say vote for Prince?? All I am saying is pls think before voting for Mandana. You don't need too vote for anyone if you have not found anything positive in them.
